Urban Modernity at Ava House.

When you step into the "Abahouse Harajuku Store" located along Meiji-dori Avenue, where the crowds never cease to flow, you can feel the casual, relaxed atmosphere of modernism in its present form, a marble of traditional style and the touch of mode. In such a store, we had a dream. How cool would it be if a group of urbane men, clad in these clothes, suddenly decided to go out into the countryside without changing their outfits? . a journey that deliberately steps away from the routine.

Take on your style of modernity.

The mindset for Fall/Winter 2019 is one of respect for formality, but with a freewheeling tension that is not bound by rules. . For example, you can wear anything over a suit style. Formulaic styling rules are increasingly being unleashed, and different styles overlap without pretension. Such latest modernity is bound to fit any location.

This earth-colored knit vest with open armpits is from " SUPER THANKS" and " Maison Margiela. Layer it over a nylon coat or a tailored jacket for a small contrasting texture. The tone-on-tone of the long coat from Abahouse is nature-like.

The down down from Moongoose, a Ukrainian brand that has just landed in Japan, is made from ultra-lightweight, frost-resistant white goose with a fill power of 700, making it the perfect choice when it comes to functionality. The matte, glossy black face is paired with sporty, colorful sneakers and Children of Discordance denim with a patchwork of vintage fabrics. The volume of the unique lines of this collection goes well with the geometric urban landscape and the ears of rice fluttering in the wind, don't you think?

A camel fleece hoodie and a pullover fleece, both with drawcord closures and zip-ups in different positions, are from the street brand Drôle de Monsieur, based in Dijon, a city in southeastern France. The inspiration that continues to inspire the two designers is the unique spirit of the local countryside and the fashion capital of Paris, which is embodied in the details.

What we want to wear is a new urban style. The more we broaden this definition, the more options men will have for their playgrounds. Whether on the streets of Harajuku or in nature a short distance away from Harajuku, it will be the same.
